+# vswitchd.conf
+#
+# Example vswitchd user configuration file
+
+# The primary purpose of this configuration file is to specify
+# persistent configuration for the bridges managed by vswitchd.
+
+# Each bridge is defined by a new "bridge" section in the
+# configuration file:
+
+# [bridge "mybridge"]
+# port = bond0
+# port = eth2
+# port = eth3
+# port = eth4
+
+# The above example would define a single bridge, named "mybridge"
+# containing the four ports specified. The bond0 port refers to a
+# bonded set of physical ports over which traffic will be shared.
+# Each bond has its own configuration section:
+
+# [bonding "bond0"]
+# slave = eth0
+# slave = eth1
+# updelay = 10
+# downdelay = 10
+
+# In this section, the slave keys list the ports to be bonded. The
+# updelay and downdelay keys specify the number of milliseconds to
+# wait before enabling or disabling the interface after carrier
+# discovery or loss respectively. If they are not specified, they
+# default to zero, resulting in immediate action.
+#
+# If the bridge is in a VLAN environment, VLAN configuration can be
+# specified in separate sections for each port:
+
+# [vlan "bond0"]
+# trunks = 101
+# trunks = 102
+# trunks = 103
+#
+# [vlan "eth2"]
+# tag = 101
+#
+# [vlan "eth3"]
+# tag = 102
+
+# This configuration would place make the bond0 port a VLAN trunk
+# carrying VLANs 101, 102, and 103. Eth2 is a member of VLAN 101 and
+# will have a tag inserted in ingress and stripped on egress, with the
+# same for eth3 on VLAN 102.
+#
+# It is sometime useful to "span" or copy traffic from one port to
+# another. This is accomplished using a mirror section specific to a
+# bridge:
+
+# [mirror "mybridge.mirror0"]
+# output.port = eth4
+# select.src-port = eth2
+# select.dst-port = eth3
+# select.port = bond0
+#
+# [mirror "mybridge.mirror1"]
+# output.vlan = 103
+# select.vlan = 101
+
+# The mirror0 configuration is a "local SPAN" configuration that would
+# copy all ingress packets from eth2, all egress packets from eth3,
+# and both ingress and egress packets from bond0 to the local eth4
+# port. The mirror1 configuration is a "remote SPAN" (RSPAN)
+# cnofiguration that would copy all traffic seen on VLAN 101 to VLAN
+# 103, where they would be flooded out bond0 since it is a trunk port
+# carrying VLAN 103.
+#
+# Often vswitch ports are only virtual interfaces local to a host and
+# as a result the vswitch does not enable spanning-tree by default.
+# Spanning tree can be enabled in an "spt" section:
+
+# [stp "mybridge"]
+# enabled = true
+# port.bond0.priority = 64
+# port.bond0.path-cost = 10
+# port.eth2.enabled = false
+#
+
+# When spanning-tree is enabled for a bridge, it is enabled for all
+# ports by default. In this example configuration, only the eth2 port
+# has spanning tree disabled.
+#
+# Network activity can also be monitored through the collection of
+# netflow records. This is enabled through a netflow section:
+
+# [netflow "mybridge"]
+# host = collector1.xyz.com:9995
+# host = collector2.xyz.com:1324
+
+# This configuration will send netflow records to collector1.xyz.com
+# on port 9995 and collector2.xyz.com on port 1324.
+#
+# Finally, vswitchd alone acts as an intelligent learning switch.
+# However, it can also be configured to allow remote control of
+# forwarding using the OpenFlow protocol. This is accomplished with
+# additional keys in the bridge section. Note here that we've defined
+# a second bridge section with the same name as the bridge section
+# defined earlier. The configuration values from both sections will
+# be merged.
+
+# [bridge "mybridge"]
+# controller = ssl:controller.xyz.com:4321
+# secchan.options = --some-option --some-other-option
+
+# Advanced note: The sections described above are primarily to enhance
+# readability. They are transformed into a hierarchical set of keys
+# separated by period characters. The configuration file may also
+# contain key/value pairs specified in this form. As an example, the
+# example configuration discussed above could alternatively been
+# specified as:
+
+# bridge.mybridge.port = bond0
+# bridge.mybridge.port = eth2
+# bridge.mybridge.port = eth3
+# bonding.bond0.slave = eth0
+# bonding.bond0.slave = eth1
+# bonding.bond0.updelay = 10
+# bonding.bond0.downdelay = 10
+# vlan.bond0.trunks = 101
+# vlan.bond0.trunks = 102
+# vlan.eth2.tag = 101
+# vlan.eth3.tag = 102
+# mybridge.mirror0.output.port = eth4
+# mybridge.mirror0.select.src-port = eth2
+# mybridge.mirror0.select.dst-port = eth3
+# mybridge.mirror0.select.port = bond0
+# mybridge.mirror1.output.vlan = 103
+# mybridge.mirror1.select.vlan = 101
+# stp.mybridge.enabled = true
+# stp.mybridge.port.bond0.priority = 64
+# stp.mybridge.port.bond0.path-cost = 10
+# stp.mybridge.port.eth2.enabled = false
+# netflow.mybridge.host = collector1.xyz.com:9995
+# netflow.mybridge.host = collector2.xyz.com:1324
+# bridge.mybridge.controller = ssl:controller.xyz.com:4321
+# bridge.mybridge.secchan.options = --some-option --some-other-option
